Why are my answers sometimes cut short on Yahoo Answers?
This happens quite frequently, even tho most of my answers are quite short.
I know I can edit them further, even after they are posted, but of course I cannot always remember what I wrote the first time. Does this happen to anyone else?

That happened to me once when I put up a series of words separated only by slashes. The system read that as one very long word.
If you put in a word that is too long, it will get truncated, as if it were a URL.

It is usually cut short because it only gives you a certain amount of space to ask a question.... that's probably one reason why. The next reason is probably because Yahoo! Answers might have some technical diffuculties and it's running bad. That's all I got.
